Achieving the highest quality polyester and nylon fibers requires selection of the right fiber filter media. We offer many filtration powder options for melt spun polymers. Typical Melt Spun Polymers and Corresponding AMETEK Filtration Product Polyamide / Nylon – AMETEK DP-1 Product Line Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) / Polyester – AMETEK 316L or DP-1 Product Line Polypropylene – AMETEK 316L or DP-1 Product Line Custom Hot Polymer Filtration materials are offered for the most demanding applications Precision Powders Provide Numerous Advantages Compared to Metallic Fibers, Sand, or Glass Outstanding continuity of spin operation Premium fiber quality through superior filtration Excellent volume performance due to robustness of metal powder Correct porosity and tortuosity in filtration media for maximum hot polymer shear enabled by our advanced water atomization technology No chemical reaction with polymer, eliminating any discoloration of the fiber

Our metallurgists specialize in the design, development and production of specialty metal powders manufactured through advanced high-pressure water atomization technology. We work alongside our customers to develop custom metal alloy powder solutions to exacting specifications for critical applications. Our expertise and nearly 50 years of history in water atomization of specialty metal powder products has led us to supply a huge number of market sectors ranging from automotive to semiconductor to aerospace across the test globe. Water Atomization Process We employ an advanced high-pressure water atomization process to engineer highly customized metal powder. Our technology is proven to achieve fine particle size distributions, enabling our metallurgists to produce precision metal powder products.

Since the 1980’s, we have been a leading producer of superfine powders for Metal Injection Molding (MIM). Our expertise and advanced atomization technology enable us to produce very fine MIM powders down to 10µm. Products and Sizes Our MIM water atomization technology is compatible with most conventional high-performance stainless steels and alloys. Special size distributions are available as well as some standard sizes. Grades: 17-4PH®, 70/30 Fe/Cr, 430L, 316L, other 300 Stainless Steel series Sizes: Typically smaller than 20µm Austenitic Stainless Steels 316L used in MIM applications which require good corrosion resistance, strength and ductility. Also available 304L and 310L. Ferritic Stainless Steels 430L ferritic stainless steel combines good magnetic response and some corrosion resistance. Also available 409L, 410L, and 434L.
